Vehicle description

1964 Volvo P1800 for sale, best offer. I bought this from a neighbor when I lived in Minneapolis who had it sitting by his garage for years, after buying it from its original owner, with plans to restore it. I had those same dreams, but was focused on restoring another old Volvo first. This car is all original - I"m pretty sure the tires might even be from the 70s; good restoration candidate if you have the time, otherwise solid parts car; it will take decent amount of work to get to a "driver" stage - see below. I"ve gotten the motor to start (starting fluid helped) and have driven it about 3/4 mile as I had time to look at things; the brakes worked for those drives, but the clutch is stuck (so only rolling starts), and given age of tires, I wouldn"t take it on a drive in traffic. A few comments on the car:
Glass is all there, not cracked No keys - I"ve rigged up a starter switch, but replacing the armored cable will be a necessary project Rust in the usual spots - rockers, some parts of floor. looks like some temporary bondo work was done in past (lighter paint areas) Chrome is generally decent - needs a polish, but all pieces there and fairly dent-free Interior panels are all there, but some are not attached Headliner is in one piece and in good shape No grill, turn signals or headlight trim rings
On the road currently, but will add a few additional photos when I get home this week. Title is packed away, will need to find it; has not been retitled since early 1970s, so bill of sale provided as well.
Car is located in garage in Chicago; local pick up only. Accept payment via cash, venmo, cashier"s check. Car is also listed locally, so may end sale early; happy to provide more information if needed
